How to choose the optimal shade for the color type of appearance
The new tone of the hairstyle will make the face more expressive if it is in harmony with the color type. This is the name of the complex of the original tone of the hair, the iris of the eyes and the skin. 4 types of appearance are associated with the seasons of the year.
Color type "Spring"
The look is sustained in warm light colors. Whitish eyelashes; hair - light brown or light with a warm tone. The face is characterized by a gentle pinkish tone. Under the sun, the skin becomes covered with freckles; the tan becomes crimson red. The eyes are gray-blue, blue, greenish.
Suitable hair colors are designed in light or bright warm colors. Among "blondes" platinum, golden and ash-blond shades are suitable.In an intense palette, caramel and light chestnut tones are good choices.
It is worth abandoning the colors of the dark cold range. Deep browns, cherry blossoms and purple-black hair tones will leave your face looking dull and painfully pale.
Color type "Summer"
In appearance, the cold light range is in the lead. Hair naturally comes in silvery blond or flax color. Eyes are gray or hazel-brown. White, blue-tinged skin is devoid of blush. The tan lays down quickly and takes on a dark brown tone.
Harmonious hairstyle colors belong to the cold palette. Platinum "blond", silvery-blond tones set off aristocratic pallor or "chocolate" tan. In dark tones, deep brown and black hair with blue, cherry, purple tones are suitable.
It is worth giving up warm golden honey shades. Bright and light colors can lend an earthy tone to a pale face.
Color type "Autumn"
The look is designed in rich brown-red tones. "Autumn" is characterized by bright red or brown hair. The eyes are amber brown, grassy green, and light blue. Skin has an inherent porcelain whiteness or warm honey tone; the face is often covered with freckles and blush. The tan lays down badly and becomes not brown, but red.
The tone of the hairstyle is chosen in a range close to the original shade.
The brightness of autumn will be emphasized by golden-brown, red-red hair, a palette of milk chocolate. It is worth giving up the light varieties of "blond" and cold dark shades. Both will conflict with a bright, warm complexion.
Color type "Winter"
In appearance, contrasting shades of a cold palette balance. The skin, white or olive, is devoid of blush and freckles. The iris in the eyes is colored black, dark gray or hazel-brown. Hair and eyelashes are naturally dark.
Optimal hairstyle colors are deep dark tones of a cold scale: burgundy, bluish-black, "bitter chocolate". It is worth giving up the honey-golden palette of "blond" and "brown-haired". Delicate hair color loses its expressiveness in the vicinity of bright eyes and white skin.
